The high cost of veterinary care has meant that some rescue groups are unable to help their animals as much as they would like. When a dog, cat or other pet needs surgery or any other costly treatment, the group may be faced with trying to raise funds through a variety of means to meet these expenses. Now, PoundWishes, a group dedicated to helping shelters and rescue groups maintain and place pets in good homes, offers "The Weekly Wish," a weekly spotlight on an animal or group in need of funds for a special purpose.

The Weekly Wish offers everyone on the site a chance to read about one animal's story or learn more about a rescue group or shelter. The group chooses a focus for its wish, and the platform allows others to donate easily, to share the story with their own donors or to connect the group to others who may be able to help. Because of the Weekly Wish and this group's dedication to helping shelter animals, more than 150 Wishes have been granted in the past year.

The website also features interactive search capabilities such as the puppy finder as seen at http://poundwishes.com/ that allow users to search with a variety of filters. For those who wish to adopt a dog as seen at http://poundwishes.com/Adopt-a-Pet.aspx or to engage in any type of pet adoption as seen at http://poundwishes.com/Grant-a-PoundWish.aspx , PoundWishes offers easy ways to locate available animals.
